Dear Code Switching list,

May I call your attention to my new book,

Bilingual Aesthetics: A New Sentimental Education (Duke UP, 2004)

It argues for the aesthetic, political, philosophical and
psychological enhancements of living in more than one language, in an
effort to develop more interest among monolinguals and to reinforce
the option of "partial assimilation," that is acquiring a new culture
without banishing another.

Than you, Doris Sommer
